On this page the full size image at the minimum and maximum ISO settings have been reduced to let you see the full image, and a series of full resolution crops have taken from original images at a range of ISO settings to show the overall image quality.

At 1600 ISO the detail is just starting to break down.

3200 ISO shows colour distortion, loss of detail and lack od contrast.
